1. Mount the motor securely on a firm and flat base. Toshiba’s ball and roller bearing normal thrust motors
through frame 447 are mechanically capable of being mounted in any position. Consult with TIC for frames
larger than 447. Special drains, shaft seals, or support construction may be required on all sizes, subject to
the environment.
2. Align the motor accurately. Ball bearings are recommended for direct coupled applications. Roller bearings
may be used with flexible couplings — ensure proper alignment. Rigid couplings require extra allowance
for thermal shaft growth toward the coupling. Skidding noise may result from the combination of internal
bearing clearances and alignment tolerances.
2. DO NOT RUN A ROLLER BEARING WITHOUT A LOAD CONNECTED.
3. V-belt sheave pitch diameters should not be less than the NEMA recommended values, or calculated formula
for frames above 445T.
4. Belt speed should not exceed 6500 ft. per minute, or consult belt/sheave supplier.
5. Motors must not be subjected to vibration exceeding 0.5 G force. Motors are not to be mounted to shaker
screens or vibrating equipment that exceeds 0.5 G force on the motor. Complete isolation is required.
